Martinganza is affiliated with the AQHA, VQHA, NSBA, and the North Carolina Quarter Horse Association

Martinganza proceeds provide partial funding for the Equine Technology Program at Martin Community College in Williamston, NC. This is the only public two-year equine studies program in North Carolina.

Martinganza is a not-for-profit organization developed to promote the horse industry in Eastern North Carolina. Our primary objectives are to:

Benefit the economic growth of Eastern North Carolina

Benefit the local and regional horse owners

Philanthropic donation to the MCC Equine Program Plan for growth

Create a rewarding experience

Fiscal responsibility to involve people that put the industry ahead of individual reward

Associate with corporate and individual sponsors that share the same philosophies

We hope you will join us at the beautiful Senator Bob Martin Eastern Agricultural Center in Williamston, North Carolina for a GREAT AQHA show and a taste of our "Down East" hospitality.
